JERA, the world’s biggest buyer of liquefied natural gas (LNG), said a cargo of LNG from the U.S. Freeport project arrived at its Kawagoe thermal power station in Mie.
The Freeport LNG project in Texas started production at its first liquefaction train last August and shipped its first cargo in September, adding to a global LNG surplus.
JERA’s first cargo, carrying about 70,000 tonnes, is also the first cargo from Freeport’s LNG project to reach Japan.
